Lots of Movies and A Few Books in Our October Wrap Up

Hello friends! Another month has gone by and, if I'm being honest, October wasn't any better than the previous ones.

September Wrap Up, ft. Being Tired, YA Lit and Some Movies

August Wrap Up, ft. Books, Films, and an Important Blog Update

Hello friends! Look at us, we've conquered another month of this dreadful year. (Not that I think 2021 is going to bring us better things, but you know, we do have to look forward to something, right?) From this point, we'll choose one world issue to highlight in each monthly wrap up and we ask…

In the introduction to our May Wrap Up, we would like to highlight a handful of current issues: We encourage you to visit blacklivesmatters, where you can find petitions to sign, ways to donate, as well as…

Great Books, TV Shows and Video Games in Our April Wrap Up

Hello friends! I've come to love writing these wrap ups not only because they're fun, but also because they remind me that it is the end of the month when time has pretty much lost its meaning. 😅 Don't judge, I've been cooped up inside for weeks - one of the most exciting moments of…
